The Boothbay Region YMCA is proud to announce that it has exceeded its campaign goal with a total of $16.1 million.  The A Greater Impact campaign began in 2018 with a grant of $3.5 million from the Marylouise Tandy Foundation.  The goals of the campaign were to create a waterfront pavilion at Camp Knickerbocker, renovate the main facility, the Marylouise Tandy fieldhouse, the Child Enrichment Center, and McEvoy Lodge at Camp K, and purchase two new mini-busses.  In addition, the campaign strived to inspire donors to also participate in the operations of the Y through the Annual and Camp K Funds and to support its reserves through gifts and bequests to the board designated endowment fund.

Critical improvements to the Harbor Montessori School and Child Enrichment Center start in March 2025.  The program will be temporarily relocated to the Y’s main facility during the renovations.  Renovations to the McEvoy Lodge at Camp K will begin after the 2025 camp season is complete.  The Fit Kids after-school program will be temporarily relocated to the Y’s main facility during that renovation.

Thank you to our supporters and donors to the Y’s capital campaign!
